Martin Shkreli Auctions Chance to Punch Him in the Face

Martin Shkreli very rapidly earned himself the reputation of most hated man in America after he raised the price of the HIV drug Daraprim by over 5,000% last year.

As we’ve discussed before, this caused the price of the drug to rise to a horrific $750 per pill, which caused a huge outrage and backlash.

Ever the capitalist, Martin Shkreli is now auctioning off the chance to hit him in his oh-so punchable face. Apparently, this auction is in aid of the family of his friend Mike Kulich, who passed away recently.

Naturally, there is a limitless line of people who want to give Shkreli the punch he so deserves, but naturally you need to be fairly wealthy to win this chance. According to Shkreli, the largest bids at the moment are $78,000 and $25,000.

However, there is also the option for someone else to throw the punch for the winner. So, for example, we could be treated to the sight of Mike Tyson punching Martin Shkreli in the face since he is allowing people to film it.
